Issa (wife of Teremun)

Issa (died 48 BC) was the wife of Teremun and a resident of Siwa, Egypt during the 1st century BC. In 48 BC, she sent a letter to the medjay Bayek requesting his help with freeing her husband from imprisonment due to his participation in protests, but Bayek found that he had been tortured to death before he could rescue him. Meanwhile, Pharaoh Ptolemy XIII's troops came to Teremun's farm in search of his family, and Issa, her son, and her daughter took shelter in the farmhouse's basement. Ptolemy's soldiers set fire to the farmhouse, and Issa and her children died in the blaze; they were buried together with Teremun.
